this list to just 25, but we've done it – and the places that made it

The tech industry in Leeds is going from strength to strength, but

play in its success. From shining a spotlight on what we do best to
nurturing talent, it's amazing what you can accomplish when you work
together.

country and watch the colours change from green to golden hues. Try one

of chaos. Or so we thought. But actually, they're also working behind the
scenes in companies like Sky Betting & Gaming to keep your data
secure.

Happy
Friday New Yorkers,
Did everyone enjoy
the short week? We've compiled a grooving weekend guide featuring
festivals, shows, and fairs to see all weekend. There is fun, food and
activities for individuals, a group of friends or families alike! 🌆🎊😎
There is something
brewing down the rabbit hole. Actually, it’s brewing right here in NYC.
Inside the Alice In Wonderland bar experience aboard the Mad-Hatter
Bus, visitors can enjoy twisted cocktails as mad as the Hatter
himself. 🎩🍹🎪
There’s a way to
mesh together eco-consciousness and a rare chance to whale
watch in NYC. Gotham Whale, an animal rights group, is hosting their
whale watching approximately 5 miles from the city! Buying your ticket funds
their non-profit and the research saving the whale communities in our
waterways. 🚢🏙🐋
Time to turn your
kitchen into a creamery for a special night of frozen dessert. Quickly,
before the cooler weather creeps in on us! Test drive this ice
cream recipe from Hauske Valtierra. 🍨😉🍦
Take a look at art
with a retrospective scope on politics at the Whitney Museum. David
Wojnarowicz exhibit, History
Keeps Me Awake At Night explores history in NYC through the 80's as well
as fundamental shifts in culture. 🖼🎥📰
Most people have
purchased some lunch from a halal cart, on an NYC street. The classic fair is
incorporated into our daily lives, delivering a filling meal that bangs for
your buck. Now, Panorama
Middle Eastern Grill is serving that and more in their elevated Middle
Eastern eatery! 🔥😋👀
Bringing music out
of NYC, with a touch of 90's swag and a lot of authenticities,

signature sound and plenty of vulnerability with her audience. 🎤👄🌆

Art And Politics
History
Keeps Me Awake at Night
Highlighted in his
show at the Whitney Museum of American Art, David Wojnarowicz was a largely
self-taught artist that rose in the New York scene in the 1980’s. Queer and
diagnosed with HIV, Wojnarowicz used his art as a statement against the U.S.
government’s inaction in regards to the AIDS crisis. Not taking on a style of
his own, he became an amalgamation of different techniques, representative of
the varying groups of people he wished to give a voice to.
The show is a
retrospective, essentially bringing his art back to demonstrate America’s
need to make a statement similar to what Wojnarowicz did. Lack of inclusion
of all people is something Wojnarowicz focused heavily on and is a frequent
topic of discussion in politics today.
The show is funded
by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, and The Keith Haring
Foundation Exhibition Fund, among others.
The Whitney has
also made his music from days in a band available for purchase

Musician Spotlight
Growing
up through the foster care system in Harlem, Princess Nokia is unafraid in
everything she does. Never backing down, she fuels this passion into her
music. Her lyrics support herself and everything she does, calling attention
to herself and the images people have of the world around them. The flows and
beats behind her are a mix of 90’s hip-hop and R&B.
Princess Nokia
identifies as bisexual, starting her music career performing in New York’s
gay nightlife scene. She is also a strong supporter of feminism, founding a
community collective called the Smart Girl Club. Safe spaces helped her to
feel comfortable with who she is and provided her the opportunity to sit down
and write lyrics. She understands the difficulties that come with growing up
in the city, providing a community outreach that is focused on communication.
Always staying
funky and positive, Princess Nokia’s songs are a perfect party mix.

Middle Eastern Grub

assorted juices like sweet mango and warm pitas stuffed with your favorite
filling are waiting for you at Panorama Middle Eastern Grill. The hip spot is
serving up affordable and delicious meals that are perfect for students, busy
professionals, and other hungry bellies.
Choose between a
falafel or shwarma meal, served with the sauces you prefer. Request the

on the menu and the modern interior in our insider look.

This summer has been full of great concerts and events, but the
best has yet to come. Quiet Events puts on parties all throughout the
city that focus on providing a unique experience that you’ll never
forget.
Quiet
Events hosts silent disco parties with three live DJs spinning
different genres of music while guests wear headphones that have the
option to switch between channels. Each DJ has a color corresponding to
the channel they’re playing.
Since you can tell what other guests are listening to by looking
at the LED light on the side of the headphone, the event becomes way
more social. Tune in to the same channel and join them in singing your
heart out.
While traditional clubs and parties are definitely fun in their
own right, this type of party allows you to comfortably chat with one
another and make it a party on your terms when choosing the music you
want to jam to.
Quiet Events is going to end the summer with a bang by hosting
their Quiet
Clubbing Festival 2018 at the Coney Art Walls on Saturday,
September 15th.
Bring a friend or ten because this party is open to everyone ages
21 and up, or even go solo and meet someone new. Either way, this is
definitely an event you’ll have to experience first-hand to truly
understand so grab your tickets here.
See you there?!
